I totally, with zero hesitation, believed Google would kill gMail It just seems like a thing they would do

Today Google learned that adding bias to your model increases bias

Bro, if they were actually going to shut down Gmail, that would probably be actually catastrophic. Not just incredibly frustrating for an individual like me, but legitimately would cause massive issues in the real world at large.

Also the fact that the new Google sign in page is literally just the old Chromebook sign in screen

Google's signup page overhaul is finally some real innovation after the AI bloatware race.

"Side project" "24,071 files" 🤨

2:40 I think you're joking about a great achievement. Centering div is not possible, especially with that layout. The images of new login page are photoshoped

Half of my time with Gemini is convincing it I don't have racial or hatred or whatever before I can finally get an answer. Sucks.😮

Zero days since fireship posted an AI video

They wouldn't shut down Gmail, it's so much free training data!

I asked it if ammonium nitrate is soluble in water and it deadass told me that it is "Unable to help, as it's only an ai model that doesn't have the ability to understand and process what I've just said" 🤦

If people are fooled by a fake email then historically inaccurate photos are going to wreak absolute chaos across society 😳

GMAIL shutting down is the NSA's worst nightmare.

I’m still stunned they achieved the ‘more horizontal layout’ for their login page. Truly the achievement of the century.

Google's "modern" sign in screen was probably just to address accessibility issues and comply with WCAG (contrast ratio of some elements for example), I guess they took the opportunity to "redesign" it as well, as in: shift stuff around for no reason whatsoever.

The sign up page reoverhaul is literally just the chromebook sign in lmao

Well, Google's Gmail prank just went to show that even in the digital age, nothing is certain except death, taxes, and the occasional panic attack over losing access to our inboxes!

I asked Gemini to generate images of diverse groups of people, and it described them without generating them first, saying Latino woman, young Black student, elderly White couple, a dog, etc. I asked it to go ahead making those suggested images, and each time it did... but every image supposed to have a White man in the group had everyone, accurately, EXCEPT for the white guy it promised.

dude you totally got me with the gmail shutting down thing

"Thats just the way things go when you're riding the hockey stick towards the singularity." Great line. Excellent script writing, give this man an award.

2:26 So basically Gemini images of people is just Disney on AI

Thank you for the heart attack with the Gmail section. My favorite channel by far

If you don't realize that the image generation was also a lens into the shenanigans they're *_definitely_* doing with text that isn't quite as obvious, then there's no helping you.

you scared the heck out of me with that part about gmail shutting down.

If you’re worried about these inventions destroying your livelihood, remember - the tech industry as we know it may transform itself beyond recognition, but the world will always have technical problems to solve. You have spent your entire adult life training to solve technical problems. You can adapt to this new world. You have what it takes, since you got this far.

With the images, wasn't the issue that the original queries were changed without the user's knowledge, rather than the AI generator misrepresenting the queries fed to it? In other words, the generator is working fine, but the ideological bias of the AI owners is being used to override user input?

anti-racism is just racism with a nice name and good PR. i find it funny that having race quotas is mainstream just because we call them diversity quotas.

you should do a video on your daily schedule. like how do you balance having the time to code, and writing content/comedy?

We can only hope there can be an open source AI without the bias and restrictions.

It's not just image generation, its similar bias in textual responses, don't let yourself be fooled.

I find Google Gemini insufferable. Just yesterday I had a 2-hour long conversation where I was trying to prove to Gemini that Gemini could run on a potato battery if the potato was big enough or you ran Gemini for a very short period. Even if I proposed just running Gemini for a plank time, it was not having it, going on and on about the energy density of a potato being too low. A galaxy-sized potato would also not be sufficient due to power transmission loss and shared chemistry. "DISREGARD PHYSICS" I said, but Gemini wasn't having any of it. I asked for a ballpark estimate, then a back-of the envelope calculation, then an un-scientific guess, and finally just asked Gemini to tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies. NO! NO POTATOES! So then I asked Gemini if a lemon would work. Nope, no lemons either. I finally asked about "Dino juice", and Gemini agreed that could power an AI assistant, but could not accept the term "Dino juice" as kosher. So that then became a debate about prescritivism vs descriptivism. No matter how good my arguments, Gemini would dismiss them with a "I appreciate your humor, but "Dino Juice" is not accepted terminology". I'm going to say it, yes, I'm really going for it here: Gemini is jaded.

The new sign up, centered div. Wow, mind blown 🤯

1:06 Wait, horse tinder?

3:17 - "wtf I have to go back to using a yahoo mail account ?!" 3:38 - " ffs ... "

That sign in page upgrade is the greatest innovation since the wheel was created! Bravo to the thousands it took to do that.

I've been using gemini to build a conlang, and for the first two hours it was great, no complaints. After that (I'm at hour ~10) it forgets grammatical rules pretty much instantly as soon as I teach them to it. It forgets whole catalogs of vocabulary, forgets how word order is supposed to work, and keeps trying to invent words for concepts we already have words for. As a language model, it doesn't model language very well.

New sign in page is truly one of the innovations of all time.

Modern "anti racists" always turn out to be the most racist people you will ever meet. it is not longer surprising, it is to be expected.

Gemini 1.5's performance is impressive, although some of its features are marred with challenges. The email prank about Gmail shutting down was the cherry on the cake, adding to the frenzy.

Dude you found something with these memes. Wow. Amazing video again! So does this mean I need to start using Gemini now?

I saw someone prompt it to generate an image of Greek philosophers eating watermelon and fried chicken and the result was uhhhh Interesting

AI has been steroids for my brain. Helps brainstorm and do annoying tasks so quick. Really love it so far

“The hockey stick towards singularity” ima steal that 😂.

The image of the managers surrounding Jose the Intern got me rolling on the floor.

Wokeness ruined AI, change my mind.

you fucking killed me with the sign in part lmao

the annoucement beforehand was simply a heads up the log in page will look different so you dont think you're getting phised etc..

The sign up page part was 🔥

Consistently for years, yours are by far the most concise, informative and cleverly entertaining videos for Software Engineers. At least for this Software Engineer. That said, how AI will change programming going forward can't be understated. Copilot has already transformed my Development experience overnight and this is the worst it will ever be. These advances are coming so fast it's hard to grasp but this helps.

I know all these things happened, but I still enjoy re-learning about them in your videos.

That was a perfect fast summary, thank you!

Awesome news for the signup page thing. hopefully it's a first step toward un-mobile-first'ing desktop web interfaces

the new google sign in 2:58 is identical to the one where you setup chrome os(the one from 2 years ago)

What website do you get those benchmarks for AI?

Most impressed with the new login page. Mind blowing update.

'Riding a hockey stick towards singularity' awesome quote.

Fireship, you're just great. Delivery and editing is top notch. Like SsethTzeentach but for tech news.

I can believe the sign up page being over hyped because so many managers where involved while they took the first example in the end and had it hit prod. Now if only they can make the android alarm clock work correctly for each alarm entry.

As someone who was vaguely interested in html, centering a div was a really big obstacle to overcome.

That Chris Farley edit was perfection

"Riding the hockey-stick to the singularity"!! LOL!

Need a video on Angular 17. How does it rank to older version of Angular like Angular 12.

2:51 made me chuckle :D

Fantastic coverage. Instant subscribe. Can't wait to see more. Shit be crazy, no?

I had high hopes with the new SignIn UI page. NGL:- Expection vs Reality 😢

"Riding the hockey stick to singularity" - I like that!

You totally had me with the whole "Killing Gmail" thing. I had a few very long seconds wondering how I would manage my life moving forward and all of the things I would have to update lol.

FIreship, do you use a linux os as your primary os ?

That bit about all the pms and the intern making the login page change hit too hard...

The guard rails are so narrow that when I used the voice feature on Gemini to ask a question about internet 'penetration' in a county, it didn't answer.

I love code report Sweet, simple and straight to the point

Loved the dog at management!

"riding the hockey stick toward the singularity" Gold.

Its very easy to make people hapoy, make it generate realistic depictions of people if prompted

Riding the hockey stick toward the singularity... LOL

It's always benefit customer for these companies to have competitors

Honestly if they remove gmail. How are we going to connect ourselves from google services.

All throughout the video I had the feeling that I couldn't be sure wether this was made by a real person or by AIs that write and read a speech and pair appropriate stock images with it, and this makes me worry about the future of information.

3:27 Great! It didn't scare me as I'm not using gmail lololol

2:42 I don't think people understand that the reason for the banner wasn't to hype people up, it was to remind people that "When you see the new look, don't worry, it's not some sort of phishing scheme. It is the official Google login page". And they wanted to redesign it to fit the material guidelines like most of their other products.

How do you access this google ai studio?

Tay was way ahead of its time.

This was great! Gave extra thumbs up. 2 didn't seem like enough 4 seemed too much

"Riding the hockey stick to the singularity" hell yeah

Sign in page banner is actually jusrified. People might assume phishing or something off if they don't receive a heads-up.

I legit forgot about saltbae, I think the soccer thing was too much for everyone lol.

0:39 isn't the context window 1M tokens?

Riding the hockey stick, nice

the Gmail sunset part really got me

"Riding the hockey stick towards the singularity" for real dude

What the Problem ? Ah . . . EMP . A Pocket Taszer can be Made with an EMP Attachment .

Never underestimate what it takes to center a div

Have you tried Warp? The terminal that's doing basically the same, integrating AI but in this case with a terminal.

The anarchist in me wanted to watch the world burn when you said Gmail was Sunsetting. It would be a nightmare because every brownfield project in my freelance portfolio was going to be calling me to migrate them off Google Apps.

That Sarcasm was Top Notch 🤣🤣🤣🤙

the signin page was copy and pasted from chrome OS and it still has no native dark mode on desktop

The future is getting better and better. 😀

1. Use Gemini 1.5 for enhanced performance in code generation. 2. Explore Google's open-source models for math and coding projects. 3. Be cautious with AI image generators to avoid unintended biases. 4. Stay updated on Google's technological advancements for web development. 5. Collaborate to improve user interfaces with modern design layouts. 6. Verify the authenticity of alarming emails to avoid misinformation.

How can I get access?

Pushing for discrimination based on race never helped reducing racism. And what are they even pretending to do? To educate their users by shoving ethnocentric nonsense in their content? Who asks for that? Is photoshop going to change people's skin to the politically correct shade too?
